Introduction
image data. Ensuring the privacy of such data is the user’s responsibility.
Before discarding a data storage device or transferring ownership to another person,
erase all data using commercial deletion software, or set Record location data of
Location data options (A47) to Off after formatting the device and then
completely refill it with images containing no private information (for example,
images of empty sky). Care should be taken to avoid injury or damage to property
when physically destroying data storage devices. For the COOLPIX S9900, the log
data saved on the memory card is handled in the same way as other data. To erase
the log data that is obtained but not stored on the memory card, select Create log

<Important> Notes About Location Data Functions (GPS/GLONASS, Electronic Compass)
Introduction
bMap/location name data of this camera
Before using the location data functions, make sure to read “USER LICENSE
AGREEMENT FOR MAP DATA AND LOCATION NAME DATA” (F21) and agree
to the terms.
• The maps and location name information (Points of Interest: POI) are as of
April 2014.
The maps and location name information will not be updated.
• The details of geological formations are displayed simplistically according to
the scale of a map. The scale of a map and level of detail of the location data
vary depending on country and region.
If the latitude becomes higher, the horizontal and vertical scales displayed
on the monitor vary, therefore displayed geological formations differ from
the actual formations. Use the maps and location name information only as
a guide.
• The detailed map data and location name information (Points of Interest:
POI) of the People’s Republic of China (“China”) and the Republic of Korea
are not provided for the COOLPIX S9900.
bNotes about record location data functions and log recording
• When Record location data in Location data options of the Location
data options menu is set to On or during log recording, record location data
functions and log recording function will continue to operate even after the
camera is turned off (E33).
• An individual may be identified from still images or movies that have been
recorded with location data. Observe caution when you transfer still images
or movies recorded with location data, or log files to a third party or upload
them to a network such as the Internet where the public can view them.
Make sure to read “Disposing of Data Storage Devices” (Avi).
xii
bNotes about measurement functions
The COOLPIX S9900 is a camera. Do not use this camera as a navigation device
or measuring instrument.
• Use information (such as direction) measured by the camera as a guideline
only. Do not use this information for navigation of an airplane, car, and
person or land survey applications.
• When you use the camera for mountain climbing or trekking, make sure to
take a map, navigation device, or measuring instrument separately.
bUsing the camera overseas
• Before taking the camera with location data functions overseas for travel,
consult your travel agency or embassy of the country you are visiting to
confirm whether there is any restriction on use. For example, you cannot
record location data logs without permission from the government in China.
Set Record location data to Off.
• The location data may not function properly in China and on the borders
between China and neighboring countries (as of December 2014).

Notice for Customers in the U.S.A. and Canada
Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Industry of Canada
(IC)
Declaration of Conformity
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licenceexempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this
device.
FCC/IC RF Exposure Statement
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are
associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however,
that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless
devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range
while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by
heating tissue), exposure of low-level RF that does not produce heating effects
causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF
exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested
that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been
confirmed by additional research.
